October 19th was a weird night...
I don't always wake-up feeling my "usual self" in the morning and I wanted to visualise the different masks and personas we hide behind from a day to day... This was originally an #archive sketch from rougly two years ago but I only remembered and finished it up recently. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ #illustration #selfportrait #martezklarko
Black, silver and green...
#graphicdesign commission from earlier this year/ last year in-which I was approached to create a logo, typeface and branding colour scheme + for a small startup brand Studio Kae, which coincidentally has a very similar name to my own Studio Klarko naming convention. Thought I'd share some of the sample presentation mockups from my back catalogue. - Excuse the low resolution photography againnnnnnn, as I didn't have the finalised images at the time of creating this. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Something from the archives... — • Women = Genesis 2:22 “The rib that the Lord God had taken from the man he made into a woman and brought her to the man.”
I have the pleasure to announce that I'll be exhibiting at The Black Current Jam event alongside some super creative visual artists and soulful musicians, this Saturday evening (May 19th) from 6:30pm at The Canvas Cafe. Hope to see you all there 🙈
People have asked me about my archive tshirt prints and graphics I've been wearing a lot lately... Sadly I don't plan on reprinting any, but there's a few prints out right now that I created for Just Hype's new collection. PLUS I've always been obsessed with editorials / lookbook designs but I never got the opportunity to work on one, so I pinched a few shots from the new SS18 campaign limiting myself to only pictures featuring garments with graphics I created for the brand as a little excise between commissions. — Excuse the image quality, I don't have the higher res.
A quick little piece straight from the cutting room floor of a recent commission. Thought I'd share because stylistically speaking, I like it. 🙃 — Featuring my new font Kae Sans Italics & my handwriting. • • • #illustration #artistonInstagram #blackart #studioklarko #scrap
Me and photography are now on speaking terms, doubt we'll ever truly get along though... We just see things differently. 🙃 — Shout out @murat.ff & @demiiscool for the snaps.
Interrupting my semi-regular scheduled Instagram posts to bring you INSTITUTE SPRING 18 Alternative Audio Visuals 2 — putting my lil graphic spin on my friends @eazywujawuja on-going music project. • Featuring my all new font I created called Kae Sans Italics (💅) & some talented music makers.

It's my 26th #birthday tomorrow & in typical tradition I had to illustrate a lil something for it. Stay tuned for the #birthdayparty insta story tonight 🙃
This was a #commission from last year — that went sour. This #illustration gives me nothing but bad vibes... Enjoy it because I fucking don't. #rip #artistsoninstagram #digitalillustration - #brutsubmission #studioklarko @decideart
